Glad to hear it all went well
I think they take an interest in Mum also to make sure she is coping with everything ok and not struggling. Asking if you have family etc nearby is not a bad thing as it would helpfully mean you had a support network to help out from time to time and that you are not isolated.
My HV has asked lots of Q's of me which I didn't mind. It helped her piece together the picture of what was/is going on and how I was coping with it. Again she offered advice and kept telling me I was doing a great job but I needed to take care of myself more and that LO was doing fine so not to worry.
Don't think she is grilling you, its not a case to see if you are a bad mum or anything, simply so they have a better understanding and can help if need be. They might spot signs of PND or stress that you are not seeing for example. Not saying you have either just an example.
